Has a storm ever destroyed a lighthouse?
Has a storm ever destroyed a lighthouse? American lighthouses have been swept away by tsunamis, destroyed by hurricanes, toppled by erosion, gutted by fire, even targeted by weapons of war.
What do lighthouse keepers do in a storm?
With advanced notice, such as with a hurricane, lighthouse keepers will board windows and block openings where water can enter. They may also move records and inventory to keep away from possible water damage.
